AMANO BOLIVIAN HANDWOVEN FIGURAL WOOL SWEATER (C. LATE 1980s–1990s)

This vintage Amano sweater dates to the late 1980s–1990s and was handwoven in Bolivia using 100% wool, drawing directly from traditional Andean textile practices. The bold red ground is decorated with woven figural motifs inspired by Indigenous iconography, reflecting a long-standing cultural language of movement, ritual, and symbolism. Thick wool yarn, visible hand tension, and saturated natural colors give this piece a tactile, one-of-one character rooted in heritage craft rather than mass production.
